Using The Monitor
Applying The Arm Cuff
1. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm, about
1 to 2 cm above the elbow, as shown.
Place the cuff directly against the skin, as
clothing may cause a faint pulse and result
in a measurement error.
2. Constriction of the upper arm, caused by
rolling up a shirtsleeve, may prevent
accurate readings.
3. Confirm that the index
points within the
proper fit range.
How To Take Proper Measurements
For the most accurate blood pressure measurement:
Sit comfortably on a chair. Rest your arm on the table. Do not cross your legs.
Keep your feet on the floor and straighten your back.
Relax before measurement.
Place the center of the cuff at the same height as your heart.
Remain still and keep quiet during measurement.
Do not measure immediately after physical exercise or a bath. Rest before
taking the measurement.
Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time every day.
Measurement
During measurement, it is normal for the cuff to feel very tight. (Do not be alarmed)
